Marcos Athens: Artist,

Photographer and Videographer

Beginnings Crew Member: Camera/Set

Photographer/Grips/Set

Construction/Continuity

  I grew up in Springfield, MA. 

Educated myself at Springfield

Technical Community College

in business.
 
I have been artistic all my life.  I got my

start as a kid watching my father oil

paint. Later,I picked up pencils and

started to draw. Growing up I drew

everything I saw around me including

friends who would sit long enough.  I

spend as much time as I can at Cape

Cod and have a love for muscle cars.  I

was member of the Monson Art

Council from 2000-2007.

 Later I discovered my first camera and

captured the world in a instant.  This is

from growing up with an artistic father

and seeing the world thru artistic eyes. 

I have photographed many places &

consider myself lucky to have met as

many people as I have.   God bless

them all.

 I would like to share my dream &

vision of photographing the world as I

see it.  I don’t draw much anymore, but

I still travel with a camera and

photograph everything I see.Again,

thanks for stopping by. 

God Bless,

Marcos
